Knowing God by: Fighting Fear

"For God has not given us the power of fear and timidity, but of power, of love and of self discipline."
2 Timothy 1:7

Fear is a spirit. Fear uses your phobias, or your fear.
Fear is your weakness. But, you cannot run away from fear. You must run toward it. Like I said, fear is a spirit, therefor, it can talk. It will out talk you and you will run from it. You can't go up to your fear and say, " I'm too scared, nah I'm not gonna do it." No you have to say, " I am with the Lord my God, I shall not be afraid, I will face my fear, I will walk into my fear."
You must out talk the fear.
You can't let the fear overcome you.
You can't be afraid of a snake that's in your house. You have to go up to it and say, "I'm not afraid of you, this is my house, Go."
You can't be afraid of the dark. You have to walk into the dark and say. "Fear will not overcome me. I am not afraid of darkness."
Was David afraid of of Goliath? Goliath, a 10 feet tall giant?! No David was not afraid, he went up to him and took one sling and knocked him down.
Therefor, do not be afraid of fear. You are stronger that it and can and will overcome it.
